ZENBU: a collaborative, omics data integration and interactive visualization system

BioJoker — Fri, 04 Jan 2019 13:35:26 -0600

ZENBU is a data integration, data analysis, and visualization system enhanced for RNAseq, ChipSeq, CAGE and other types of next-generation-sequence-tag (NGS) based data. ZENBU allows for novel data exploration through "on-demand" data processing and interactive linked-visualizations and is able to make many-views from the same primary sequence alignment data which users can uploaded from BAM, BED, GFF and tab-text files.
Please check our documentation wiki for details on how to use the system, or check out some of the views above.

Osprey: Network Visualization System

BioJoker — Sun, 20 Jan 2019 05:34:24 -0600

Osprey is a software platform for the visualization of complex biological interaction networks. Osprey builds data-rich graphical representations from Gene Ontology (GO) annotated interaction data maintained by the BioGRID.

Osprey is developed by the TyersLab and is a part of the BioGRID family of software. It utilizes both MySQL and Java to operate and is compatible with Windows, Linux, and Apple operating systems.

These works were published in Breitkreutz, BJ., Stark, C., Tyers M. "Osprey: A Network Visualization System." Genome Biology 2003 4(3):R22 [Genome Biology] [PDF] [PubMed] and supported by the National Institutes of Health, Canadian Institutes of Health Research, and Genome Canada.

ONT assembly and Illumina polishing pipeline

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 10:13:42 -0600

This pipeline performs the following steps:

Assembly of nanopore reads using Canu.
Polish canu contigs using racon (optional).
Map a paired-end Illumina dataset onto the contigs obtained in the previous steps using BWA mem.
Perform correction of contigs using pilon and the Illumina dataset.

dnaPipeTE: de-novo assembly & annotation Pipeline for Transposable Elements

Rahul Nayak — Sat, 02 Dec 2017 18:25:44 -0600

dnaPipeTE (for de-novo assembly & annotation Pipeline for Transposable Elements), is a pipeline designed to find, annotate and quantify Transposable Elements in small samples of NGS datasets. It is very useful to quantify the proportion of TEs in newly sequenced genomes since it does not require genome assembly and works on small datasets (< 1X).

dnaPipeTE is developped by Clément Goubert, Laurent Modolo and the TREEP team of the LBBE: http://lbbe.univ-lyon1.fr/-Equipe-Elements-transposables-.html?lang=en
You can find the original publication in GBE here: https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article/7/4/1192/533768

Ra assembler - a de novo DNA assembler for third generation sequencing data

biogeek — Wed, 27 Dec 2017 20:36:54 -0600

Integration of the Ra assembler - a de novo DNA assembler for third generation sequencing data developed on Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing (FER), Ruder Boskovic Institute (RBI) and Genome Institute of Singapore (GIS).

Ra is in development since 2014 in the form of several separate components that used to be run individually.
This project aims to ease the usage of Ra by integrating it into a complete de novo assembly tool.

Unlike other state-of-the-art assemblers, Ra does not have an error correction step. Instead, it relies on detecting overlaps using a very sensitive and specific overlapper ("graphmap -w owler", https://github.com/isovic/graphmap) and constructing and reducing an overlap graph (Ra layout, https://github.com/mariokostelac/ra).

wtdbg2: A fuzzy Bruijn graph approach to long noisy reads assembly

BioStar — Mon, 04 Feb 2019 04:53:47 -0600

Wtdbg2 is a de novo sequence assembler for long noisy reads produced by PacBio or Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). It assembles raw reads without error correction and then builds the consensus from intermediate assembly output.

./wtdbg2 -x rs -g 4.6m -t 16 -i reads.fa.gz -fo prefix
./wtpoa-cns -t 16 -i prefix.ctg.lay.gz -fo prefix.ctg.fa

TRITEX sequence assembly pipeline for Triticeae genomes

Jit — Tue, 20 Aug 2019 09:47:14 -0500

The pipeline is open-source and hosted in a public Bitbucket repository.

TRITEX has been run on highly inbred genotypes of barley (Hordeum vulgare), tetraploid wheat (Triticum turgidum) and hexaploid wheat (T. aestivum) with reasonable results: super-scaffold N50 values in the range of dozens of Mb and pseudomolecules with better gene space representation than a BAC-by-BAC assembly. It has never been tested and is not expected to work on heterozygous or autopolyploid genomes.

A protocol for generating chromosome-conformation capture sequencing (Hi-C) data suitable for use with the pipeline is described in Himmelbach et al. 2018. Refer to the technical notes of 10X Genomics on how to generate Chromium data.
